Wild West 9a by Vojta Trojan
Can you tell us more about the ascent? Since I was in Margalef in November and sent the left exit, Wild Publico (9a), I wanted to finish this hardest and purest version of the route, as I got back here after Christmas. It took me way longer than I thought and I'm glad, that the one perfect condition day saved my ass and I could clip the anchor.
The route took me 6 days (1-2 tries a day) to finish, + I knew the start moves from Wild Publico. Thanks to Tom for bolting the start and opening this quite new and very cool route as well as many others!
